Dinosaurs

Velociraptor

Velociraptor, also known as the "speedy thief," is a genus of dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 75 to 71 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous period. Velociraptors were small, bipedal dinosaurs that stood about 2-3 feet tall and measured about 6-8 feet long. They had long, thin arms with sharp claws, and a large, sickle-shaped claw on each foot that was used for hunting and grasping prey. They were also feathered, and had a relatively large brain size in comparison to other dinosaurs of similar size. Velociraptor is one of the most well-known dinosaurs due to its appearance in the Jurassic Park franchise.

Stegosaurus

Stegosaurus is a genus of herbivorous thyreophoran dinosaur that lived during the Late Jurassic period, around 150-145 million years ago. It is one of the most easily recognizable dinosaurs due to the distinctive plates and spikes on its back.

Stegosaurus had a large, bulky body and a small head, with a long tail and short, stumpy legs. It was around 9 meters in length and 4 meters in height. It had a row of large bony plates running down its back, and several spikes on its tail which were used for defense. The purpose of the bony plates is still debated, but it is suggested that they were used for thermoregulation or for display during courtship. Its small brain and large body suggest that it had a low intelligence and relied more on instinct to survive.
